    At least in Bethesda’s case, the bugs are rarely game-breaking. Must of them are just visual or physics bugs which can be amusing. If Starfield releases in a similar state to Skyrim’s launch, I’ll be happy.

    Then again there was that one game-breaking bug on PS3 when your Skyrim save got too big. Hopefully we don’t have a repeat of that.

      physics bugs arent so amusing when it causes quest items to fall through the floor into the endless void of misery, forcing you to reload a save repeatedly until it decides to not phase through solid matter.

      WE RESPECT THE LAWS OF PHYSICS IN THIS GOD DAMN HOUSE, GOD DAMNIT.

      I almost like the bugs and feeling like Bethesda games are breaching at the seams because they made so much possible.

        Personally, in retrospect, I feel like Bethesda games did less “push the boundaries” and more “spread the spill”.

        Skyrim was always touted as this deep character development based game, but in terms of functional combat mechanics and interactability it felt wide as an ocean, but actual meaningful character development both personal and story driven, seems only as deep as a puddle.

          I genuinely don’t understand the Hype skyrim gets, and I say that as someone who has played a shit ton of skyrim.

          Skyrim is so simplified and boiled down compared to even oblivion.
